Light Piloswine

Numbered 26 of 113 in Neo Destiny, released in February 2002, Light Piloswine is a Rare, a Stage 1 Water-type carrying 90 HP.

It evolves from Swinub, so Light Piloswine is a later-stage card that set-builders usually slot into a full evolution run rather than buy alone.

Light Piloswine carries this Pokédex flavor text: "Its legs are short, but its hooves are wide and flat, allowing it to easily walk over snow."

Light Piloswine is a non-holo Rare. In Neo Destiny, value concentrates in the holo rares, so a Light Piloswine trades modestly, though a clean, well-centered 1st Edition copy in PSA 10 is scarcer than the print run suggests and carries a real premium. Check the live price above for the figure by grade.

Neo Destiny produced 1st Edition, Unlimited, Shining prints. For Light Piloswine, the print variant can change the price several times over, so identify it before you buy.

On Light Piloswine, look at the corners and the framed border first. Non-holo Rares took more handling than the chase holos, so a sharp, centered copy of Light Piloswine in a true PSA 10 is harder to find than the print run suggests.

For Light Piloswine, check centering by eye, edge whitening on all four sides, and surface under angled light. Non-holo Rares from this era are cheap enough that a PSA 10 submission on a clean Light Piloswine can make sense.
